with door open does the drum light go out if you press the door switch with your finger? if it does try starting dryer while holding the switch in with your finger

if it still does not start you need to test the thermal safety, its the round disk on the top right of the heater shroud, easy test is to remove the 2 wires and tape them togeather, then try to start the dryer, if it starts like that you need to replace this part

DO NOT use the dryer with the wires joined and the safety bypassed!!!

hope i've been helpfull, if you wish to buy Brnt beer kick here

I found a red/black wire disconnected from behind the top cover on the panel of dials, it appears to be from the farthest right dial, the timer, would I be able to find a pic of how those wires all connect?

I'm probably not describing it right, from the diagram "controllers/top panel", it is number 1 timer-dryer "t"'
large dial far right, red and black wire connected together , several pins left open on back of dial, thanks
